Summary Introduction

Introduction:

The directional terms are used in anatomy, which describes the positions of structures relative to other structures or locations in the body.

Explanation of Solution

Justification for correct answer:

Option (c) is given as the front of the body or body part is referred as ventral. In biological anatomy, ventral signifies body part closer to the front side of the body. For example, the eyes are ventral to the brain. Hence, (c) is the correct option.

Justification for incorrect answers:

Option (a) is given as lying on the back, face upward is referred as ventral. Supine position signifies lying on the back with face upward while ventral signifies body part closer to the front side of the body. Hence, (a) is an incorrect option.

Option (b) is given as farther from the point of attachment is referred as ventral. Distal position signifies farther from the point of attachment while ventral signifies body part closer to the front side of the body. Hence, (b) is an incorrect option.

Option (d) is given as toward the tail end of the spine is referred as ventral. Caudal position signifies toward the tail end of the spine while ventral signifies body part closer to the front side of the body. Hence, (d) is an incorrect option.

Overview of Transformation Protocol   -Prepare competent bacteria for transformation: Treat starter E. coli bacteria with CaCl2and Competent Cell Solution (CCS). Store on ice until transformation procedure. Competent cells are cells that are likely to take up foreign DNA and be transformed. This step increases the likelihood that the E. coli cells will take up the introduced vector and be transformed. -Transformation procedure: Obtain two microcentrifuge tubes containing your competent cells. Label one tube +DNA and one -DNA. Add CaCl2 to both tubes. Add the transformation mix containing the plasmid DNA to the tube labeled +DNA. Do not add any plasmid DNA to the -DNA tube. Incubate both tubes on ice for 10 minutes. Then, place both tubes in a 42\deg C water bath for 45 seconds. Replace the tubes in an ice bucket for 2 minutes. Add recovery broth to both tubes. Incubate both tubes in a 37 C water bath for 5 minutes.   Questions: 1)What is the selectable marker in this experiment? How…
